| Heya all... Have a question. How do I get highlighting to work with wildcards? IE I want to have pages to/from me highlighted, but don't want <or need> to set up a highlight for EVERY possible scenario of being paged by person A-ZZZZ
The game system's pages are set up as follows:
[Command typed] (For simple talking)
p johnothan= test
[Response individual paged sees]
Johnothan pages: Test
[Game Response YOU see]
You paged Johnothan with 'Test'
[Command typed] <for long distance/private actions>
p johnothan=; tests
[Response individual paged sees]
From afar, Johnothan Tests
[Game Response YOU see]
Long distance to Johnothan: Johnothan Tests
So I need a set of highlight triggers that will appropriately acknowledge whoever I page <You paged ?>/ Long distance to ?> and responses from anyone <? pages / From afar, ?>
I'll keep playing/working with it to see if I can figure it out on my own, but appreciate the help in case I can't get it. | | Top |

| Just set up a handful of triggers that match what you want, with * in place of changeable text (like their name, what they say), and set up "change colour and style" as appropriate. For example:
<triggers>
<trigger
custom_colour="2"
enabled="y"
keep_evaluating="y"
match="From afar, *"
sequence="100"
>
</trigger>
</triggers>

For advice on how to copy the above, and paste it into MUSHclient, please see Pasting XML.
